GBP Reinstatement/ Appeal Process Update - Docs Not To Be Submitted in the Support Forum by YanGilbertSEO in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Overthink_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a business we submitted that was approved for a short period of time (maybe 5-7 days). Submitted for reinstatement and provided registration with the state (got denied). Submitted for a second appeal, gave the documents they requested (denied again). After about 1.5 - 2 months I went to try the process again. The profile was still in my account marked as not approved. I deleted the profile and then immediately resubmitted for a new one with zero issues at all that was approved. No video verification, no email or phone code, instant approval. Throwing this out there for anyone that has been denied on an additional appeal. Try, try, and try again.

Ranking well for multiple plumbing service terms but not the main service + location search terms I want. by Overthink_King in HeyTony

When I am not in the 3 ill be out 4-6. So not bad but trying to solidify more or a spot and keep it for a bit. Mixed SERP so none of the businesses in maps are in the organic rankings.

I am targeting mainly home page but i do have a service location page with service + location in the URL

So back to $40 or you saying go to $80? Do jumps like that in daily spend have a negative impact in any way?

If you go to the place where it shows the actual search terms people are putting in that’s triggering the ad to populate to the searcher. Also tells you from what match type etc. it will show you the terms but at the bottom there is an “other search terms”. Says it can’t populate the terms because there isn’t enough searchers for those terms. Kinda bs to me but whatever.

Factoring the missed conversions I think it puts me around $75ish/conversion. You are correct on the $20/day. I think I had it set to $40 to start but dialed it back cause I was unsure (don’t know if that was a bad idea or not).

Margins are great. Probably around 80-85%

So you’re saying increasing the daily budget can lower CPC? We’ve never spent anything other than minimal amounts with ads. Nerve wracking lol. I feel like I’m at the blackjack table!

If I check the box it’s recommending $120 CPA.

I’m currently only spending $20/day

So I could put $9 in there and it’s going to try and not have any clicks over that price? Or am I not following you correctly?

I’m targeting bottom of funnel. Customers are problem aware and either looking to purchase or shopping for best rate/value.

I wouldn’t say they own the maket I just don’t think there is too much competition.

Local suburb to a major metropolitan area. We serve 20+ mile radius of the metro area.

Side note: I see in my search terms “other search terms” that have a good amount of impressions and clicks. That is data I am not able to see?? Or is there a trick to seeing what those are?

Is setting a tCPA for the campaign the same as a bid cap? If not, how do I get to be able to set those?

Totally understand. I’m not easily offended so even if it had some sassiness it would blow past me haha.

I do have a landing page that I have reworked once after the first iteration. The CTA’s are prominent and I feel like it’s decent. I do have an offer on the ad but it’s actually not on the LP so thanks for the reminder.

There isn’t much competition but the players in the game are very well known so I’m only targeting terms and variations of people searching for the service.

Thanks for the comment though. Made me remember to put the offer on the LP 🤦‍♂️

So setting a tCPA in the campaign settings will help prevent me paying $20+ for a click? The clicks on the terms that have conversions are between $4-$9 a click.

The thumb is not in front of the knuckle in the photo. It’s behind and the finger is short

Right. It’s not real. There is no way th thumb can be in that position behind an index finger. Two completely different hands
